"wee" as used in Scotland is not a noun.
[edit]You should be able to say with a noun "I put a wee in my pocket" for example, but as I understand this is not how it's used in Scotland. I think the proper term for this is an adjective: "a wee lass" is a young girl.
Wee is also used in Ireland - meaning small, an adjective. Fowler, H.W. and Fowler, F.G. (Ed) 1964. p.1478. The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Current English. Oxford. At Clarendon Press.Osborne 19:57, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
